Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effects of inflation on real investment in Iran. After briefly reviewing the investment theories and their situation in Iran, we consider the determinants of investment by using annual data (1958-2009).
Results of the Augmented Dickey- Fuller (ADF) test indicate that all of the variables appearing in model are I(1). So, the results of the threshold regression model indicate that real GDP, the trade openness index and inflation rate can influence investment.
Results also show that the effect of inflation on investment follows an asymmetric adjustment process. The threshold level for the rate of inflation has been estimated 11.9 percent. If the annual rate of inflation exceeds this threshold level, it will have a negative impact on investment. But, if inflation remains below this level, not only the negative effect fades away but also rising prices can boost investment.

Abstract
In this study we compare a set of Markov Regime-Switching GARCH models in terms of their ability to forecast the Tehran stock market volatility at different time intervals. SW-GARCH models have been used to avoid the excessive persistence that usually found in GARCH models. In SW-GARCH models all parameters are allowed to switch between a low or high volatility regimes. Both Gaussian and fat-tailed conditional distributions are assumed for the residuals, and the degrees of freedom can also be state-dependent to capture possible time-varying kurtosis. Using stationary bootstrap and re-sampling, the forecasting performances of the competing models are evaluated by statistical loss functions. The empirical analysis demonstrates that SW-GARCH models outperform all standard GARCH models in forecasting volatility. Also, the SW-GARCH model with the t distribution for errors has the best performance in fitting a model and estimation.

Abstract
In this paper a new model for optimal investment in advanced manufacturing machines is proposed, using fuzzy linear programming. In the first step decision-makers determine the strategic objectives of the company and their minimum acceptable achievement levels, using fuzzy numbers. Thereafter, feasible alternatives and their degree of influence to the achievement of each objective are concluded in the form of linguistic variables. To construct the model, the degree of influence of each alternative in the achievement of the objectives are considered as technological coefficients, and the minimum level of acceptance of objectives are considered as constraints (right hand side variables). Furthermore, the mutually exclusive alternatives, the interaction between machines and the constraint of limited investment of budget are included in the model. The aim of the model is to determine the number of machines that needs to be purchased in order to maximize the present value of investment. The calculation of net present value is executed based on discount cash flow, inflation rate, interest rate, revenue and costs of each machine on a fuzzy environment. Finally by presenting an empirical illustration, the performance of this model is clarified.

Abstract
Efficiency analysis plays an important role in price regulation in the electricity distribution sector. This paper analyses efficiency and productivity of 38 electric distribution companies in Iran from year 1387 to 1389 (Iranian calendar year) by using slack based model (SBM). Super efficiency analysis is employed to rank full efficient companies. According to results, Tabriz, Ahwaz and north Khorasan companies have best performance among others. To examine importance of losses inclusion as input on super efficiency scores, statistical tests are utilized. Results indicate significant difference in super efficiency scores with and without accounting for losses. Average productivity index of total companies has declined by 4 percent under investigated period. Further, Panel data analysis applied to specify determinants of super efficiency of electricity distribution companies. According to results, Loss rate, network density and transformer load factor are the main determinants of super efficiency.

Abstract
The specification of money demand function is one of the most
important and disputable subjects in economics. With regard to its importance, many of economists have represented several theorizes about money demand.
The Sidrauski monetary model is an interesting theory of money demand.
Sidrauski extended Ramsey model with regard real balance of money which in the
Sidrauski model the utility function involves both consumption and money. Application
of Sidrauski model can help to extend
macroeconomics with micro foundations in Iran and prepares new scopes for
researchers. The main aim of this paper is to estimate the Sidrauski monetary model for Iranian economy over the period
of 1979 -2011. For this purpose, the Engle – Granger, ARDL and Johansen-
Juselius approaches have been used for estimation of long run relationship of
money demand. The empirical results of econometric estimation of co-integration
vector indicated a long run relationship between per capita money demand, per
capita consumption, and inflation rate, rate of interest, exchange rate, per
capita income, and stock exchange price index. Our
results showed that per capita consumption and per capita income have positive
and significant effect on per capita money demand. Whereas inflation rate, rate
of interest, exchange rate and stock exchange price index
have negative and significant effect on per capita money demand.

Abstract
Changes infertility ratesasone of the factors affecting the demographic changes and its rolein the labor supply and there fore economic growth, as an important element ofsocio-economic development of every country is considered. So that the importance of demographic changes in each country in recent years has increased resulting aging population in general and specifically decreased fertility that increased concerns for the global economy and the majority of developing countries-including Iran. However, the range of empirical studies in incurred countries is very limited and in most studies, the surface shape of the subject has investigated in a simple line a reconometric model. Thus this study investigates the impact of fertility’s changes one conomic well-being in selected MENAcountries over the 1970-2010. We apply dynamic consumer optimization model that incorporates end ogenous fertility as well as end ogenous education and health investments offered by Prettner and et al. (2013). The estimation results of non-linear panel smooth transition regression model reports the negative effect of fertility and positive effect of revenue and population on effective labor force, which show that the quantity-quality trade off in population acts in favor of labor force and increases its quality and causes output growth and well-being. This issue is in ferable from positive effect of population on education and health-as delineator indices for well-being- in the countries under investigation.

Abstract
Extension informal and unorganized money and credit markets in Iran, is much broader than the official money markets. This problem causes a large difference between formal and informal money market loans interest rate in Iran. The large size of the informal market liquidity that can’t be guided by the monetary policies of central bank's and fiscal policies could help to increase the inflation rate in the country.
In this paper, we use the AHP method for to explore this topic that fits with the existing monetary and financial institutions, which sector is more appropriate for investment and targeted liquidity existing in society, in order to reduce inflation and stimulate growth in the industry. The results revealed the stock exchange is the best financial and investments institutions in order to reduce the inflation that caused by the high liquidity of the present.

Abstract
In recent decades the development of capital markets in developing countries, economic growth is desirable to have. Developed countries owe much of its development direction of financial markets, especially the stock market knows. The stock market is precisely the collection of savings and private capital to finance investment projects and on the other hand, an official and is confident that the owners of dormant savings can be relatively affordable and safe place to seek investment and their funds to invest in companies operate. The role of the stock market to boost the economy of countries like Iran and wandered from one side to the large amounts of capita and on the other hand, face a shortage of investment, is striking. Therefore, understanding the factors influencing the behavior of the stock market can be considered useful for the capital's economy. In this context, this study examines the impact of fiscal and monetary policy shocks on stock market Iran. Regression model to estimate the structural model and the data for seasonal 1991: 1-2010: 4 was used. The results of the model indicate that the short-term shock to the money supply (monetary policy instrument) and long-term government spending shocks (monetary policy instrument) Fluctuations of stock price indices explain. In other words, the impact of monetary policy on stock prices faster than the impact of fiscal policy. Because government spending through the stock market affects ,First government spending on aggregate demand and thus income consumers and the general level of prices affects subsequent stock price changes, but by changing the money supply, the faster people can spend their surplus cash available to purchase the stock of assets that form part of it. The lag effect of monetary policy is much shorter than the lag effect of monetary policy

Abstract
Regarding to studies in different countries the research and development (R&D) play a major role in economy growth. Investment in R&D increase level of knowledge, and we have increase in production efficiency by knowledge increasing, after that economic growth will improve by productivity channel. Many studies exist on the R&D but in any of them not used the same variable for this indicator. The time series of knowledge level is not visible because of complexity the calculations and measurements of this variable. In this study the level of knowledge is intended as an unobservable variable. After that using LP and OP method the time series of this variable is extracted during the period 1974-2014 for Iranian economy. Estimates this series will be an important way for future empirical studies in research and development. Algorithms and methods that used in this paper can be run for other countries. Based on LP method, results shows during the 40 years of knowledge for Iranian economy has upward trend and the averages of grow rate of knowledge level is 0.42 percent for each year.

Abstract
In this study by using Markov Regime Switching Heteroscedasticity Models (MRSH) in the form of state-space model the behavior of stock returns is examined. This approach endogenously permits the volatility to switch as the date and regime change and allows us to decompose the permanent and transitory component of stock returns. The period of the study is the fourth month of 2000 to the seventh month of 2013. The durations of the high-variance regimes for permanent components short-lived and revert to normal levels quickly and low variance regime for this components is more lasting, but durations of high-variance regime for transitory component is reverse. Also, in during periods of study low variance regime is dominant by a permanent component of stock returns but for the transitory component the high variance state is true captured.

Abstract
One of the capital asset pricing models is CCAPM model that first time were presented by Breeden (1979). In the standard and the basic CCAPM establishes a linear relationship between consumption’s beta and excess return on assets but unfortunately, linear CCAPM made The Equity Premium Puzzle. After presenting puzzles like equity premium puzzle, adjustments were made in the CCAPM. For this purpose in this paper, adjustments have been made in the preferences as explores the implications of a novel class of preferences for the behavior of asset prices. This class of preferences was suggested first time by Marshall (1920), that according to it, people derive utility not only from consumption, but also from the very act of saving.
In this paper, we derive the Euler equations after modeling preferences based on the savings and consumption estimate them with GMM. In order to estimate the models, is examined quarterly data of 1977 to 2010. The models are significant in the other words it can be concluded that consumption and saving are successful in explaining stocks returns. Based on the estimated parameters in the models we can conclude that β is greater than 0.8 and savings is significant in preferences function but don’t have high value. In addition, these results indicate that economic agents are risk averse.

Abstract
The labor market, as one of the four markets, plays an important role in economic growth and development. So review developments in the labor market because of its close relationship with developments in other sectors is of great importance. This study tries to examine the dynamics of the labor market by adjusting for a New Keynesian dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model for the Iranian economy. After the model was solved, the obtained equations were linearized and their parameters were estimated using the economic data of Iran (2005-2017) by the Bayesian method. Comparing the model's moments with the economic momentum indicates the success of the model in real-world simulation (production, consumption, investment, unemployment, and participation rate). Impulse Response Functions Survey shows that participation rates are consistent with cyclic behavior. On the other hand, in response to shocks (monetary, oil revenues, government expenditures, and public sector employment), increased employment, but the unemployment rate has changed slightly due to the change in the participation rate and the change in the size of the active population, which represents the sustainability of the unemployment rate.

Abstract
In this paper ,in order to investigate the economic effects of the minimum wage policy on macroeconomic variables in the framework of the new Keynesian theory, a dynamic stochastic equilibrium general (DSGE) model has been simulated and estimated for an open and small oil exporter economy conforming with the structure of Iran's economy in the range from 1370 to 1395 .In the above mentioned model, nominal rigidity (wages and prices) and consumer habits are considered to be in line with the economic condition of the country, the labor market is classified in to sectors of unskilled and skilled labor. The main purpose of this study is to find an answer determining the annual minimum wage based on the CPI mechanism, in which the economy is exposed to supply demand shocks and monetary and financial policies, impacts on the macroeconomic variables, namely GDP, inflation, employment and total wage growth. The results of the simulation and estimation of this model, which show that the simulated data torques are consistent with real-world are based data based on calibration, show that by an increase in the minimum wage can contribute to not only a rise in inflation and total wage level, but also a fall in GPD, consumption &investment in the short time.

Abstract
This study investigates the relation between bounced checks and economic growth through the banking credit risk channel by estimation of a simultaneous equation system with panel data for 31 Iranian provinces covers the years from 2011 to 2015. For this purpose, after identifying determinants of the bounced checks, the relations of this variable with the non-performing loans, banking loans and economic growth are evaluated. The results confirm the positive relationship between the bounced checks to GDP ratio and the prices index, whereas the impacts of output deviation from trend and the index of enforcement of laws on the bounced checks are negative. In times of stagflation, with the decreasing possibility of defaults, the bounced checks tend to grow. Also, with the development of legal and judicial system in the country with a view to boosting institutional and governance quality, the number of bounced checks decreases on the scale of economic activities. On the other hand, the number of bounced checks after fixing the control variables will lead to an increase of non-performing loans and the bank credit risk. Meanwhile the impact of bank loans on economic growth through the productivity channel is meaningful and positive. Therefore, in the Iranian economy the increase of bounced checks through the channel of bank loaning power will have a negative influence on economic growth.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to theoretically investigate the role of the bank deposit market structure in how effective micro and macro prudential policies in determining the regulatory capital of banks in combination with monetary policy. To achieve this, a partial equilibrium analytical framework has been developed that includes rational economic entities and the possibility of contagion risk in the banking system in order to achieve more explicit and tangible results. In general, it will be shown that the imperfect structure of the bank deposit market as a policy transmission channel (which is less considered in the literature) can significantly change the micro and macro implications of such policies. Specifically, the effects of these policies on allocation and stabilization efficiency will be followed in terms of the types of conceivable equilibria for deposit rates, expected net returns, expected markup, and the level of expected effort of banks operating in the banking system. Expected markup capital elasticity of banking system smaller than one at the micro and macro levels play a special role in prudential policies. Each bank interactively with other banks would shape its solutions and expectations towards upcoming states of the economy (in so doing customizing its balance sheet asset side) along with key determinants for its solvency in respecting its financial obligations to depositors and whereby touching depositors’ confidence in its performance so hard that seizing utmost share in deposit market by bidding appropriate deposit rate. The deposit rate together with the level of monitoring efforts would further hit banking sector contagion risk drawing in its associated externalities and under well-defined conditions could expose the banking system to higher fragility.

Abstract
Collective pension funds have many advantages including larger risk pool and the possibility of interpersonal and intergenerational risk sharing, as well as economies of scale and lower administrative costs. For decades, however, this has been achieved through mandatory participation, while this traditional and mandatory form of contribution is no longer commensurate with the future of work. In this regard, many countries have implemented a combinatorial policy in the form of auto-enrolment pensions and then the granting of opting out authority. However, the sustainability of these schemes will depend on people's motivation to participate or leave. This article tries to examine the motivations of individuals to exit the Iran Social Security Organization (ISSO) pension fund, assuming that the insureds are given the opportunity to opt out once in a certain time. For this purpose, the method of option pricing is used. Findings show that insureds will accept even a 60 percent deficit in fund’s long-term liabilities for the only reason to take advantage of investment income of their predecessors funds or interpersonal and intergenerational risk sharing. It was also observed that an increase in the funding ratio, lower liabilities, a rise in assets and a higher rate of return on investments encourage participation and reduce the incentive to exit. A decline in accrual rate, increase in the contribution rate, higher retirement age, accelerating the adjustment rate of fund deficit due to their detrimental effect on the insureds have a direct negative effect on the incentive to participate and stimulate withdrawal. It should be noted, however, that these factors will also reduce liabilities and increase the funding ratio, thereby contributing to the sustainability of the plan may ultimately reduce the exit incentives.

Abstract
In this paper, in order to determine the optimal minimum wage policy in Iran, in the framework of the new Keynesian theory, a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model was estimated for a small and open oil-exporting economy, according to the structure of Iran's economy in the time range of 1190 to 2019. In this model, the nominal rigidity and work habits in the supply and demand sectors are considered, and in order to simulation the economic conditions of the country, meanwhile classify the labor market in two parts; the skilled (whose maximizes its wage based on its utility) and unskilled labor, the model has considered to four parts. The main purpose of this study is to answer the question of determining and adjusting the annual minimum wage based on which of the indicators of inflation, the growth of the total wage and a combination of inflation indicators and productivity of production factors, in a situation where the economy is exposed to markup of wages and prices shocks, supply and the demand of the economy and monetary and financial policies, was optimal and it causes the least negative fluctuation (deviation) on macroeconomic variables including inflation, employment, production, consumption and investment. Based on this study, three scenarios were designed and the effect of minimum wage on economic variables was analyzed. The results of the simulation and estimation of this model, which indicate the matching of the moments of the simulated data with the real world data and based on calibration in all three scenarios, it shows that the selection sum of inflation growth and the productivity indexes to adjust the minimum wage policy, although it has cyclical effects on inflation, in comparison to other scenarios, it has the least negative deviation on economic variables and can be used as an optimal indicator for choosing the minimum wage in the Supreme Labor Council of the country.

Abstract
In this study, considering the characteristics of complex networks such as dynamics and comprehensiveness in analyzing the behaviors of countries, the global network of foreign investment inflows consisting of 248 countries and trade territories in the years 2009 to 2022 was constructed, and network indicators including degree, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality, PageRank, hub, and authority were calculated. Then, the functional position of the top-performing countries based on the intensity and level of the obtained network indicators was analyzed and compared annually. The results obtained during the study period showed improvement in the degree, betweenness, and PageRank indices, which respectively indicate the number and diversity of communications, the share of information control among countries, and countries' efforts to use the influence of neighbors to reach polar and influential countries. The effect of increasing closeness centrality, which indicates the level of independence, on the main countries in the effective network has improved. Therefore, it is recommended that if countries seek to increase foreign direct investment inflows, they should plan in such a way that their network indicators, resulting from increased interactions and communications, are improved.

Abstract
Market economies rely on the payment system to facilitate trade and exchange between businesses and consumers in the product market. "Payment" is the transfer of monetary value. The ability to control monetary policy instruments is one of the challenges of monetary policy in Iran. The reduction of the central bank's control over the money supply and the implementation of monetary policy is due to the change that occurs in the monetary base and the monetary multiplier. The structure of stochastic dynamic general equilibrium models, like other general equilibrium models, aims to describe the behavior of the entire economy and use decision interaction analysis. Wisdom is built on different levels.Due to the existence of sanctions and the lack of clear and correct information on the amount of sales of crude oil and other export items and petroleum products and unnecessary complications in doing the economics paper, it is considered closed, but if the correct information in can be considered as the expansion of the economy.The findings of this section indicate that the central bank's reaction to the growth rate of the total index of the real sector of the economy against the reaction to the deviation of the total index from its long-term equilibrium level can be more effective in reducing the real effects of the shocks of the real sector of the economy on macroeconomic variables. . Because the central bank controls the status of asset returns in other parallel markets such as currency, price levels, deposits and loans, and therefore the reaction to the emotional dynamics of the market return against the reaction to the market index level further guarantees macroeconomic stability.

Abstract
This research aims to model the effective systematic risks of financial recovery in the insurance industry. This research is a type of applied research. The period of research is 11 years (1400-1390). For this purpose, the information on 14 systematic risks affecting the financial solvency of insurance companies was entered into dynamic, selective, and Bayesian averaging models. Based on the error rate, the Bayesian averaging model had the highest accuracy among the selected models. After estimating the model, 5 economic growth risks, inflation uncertainty, exchange rate, sanctions, and KOF index were selected; Also, based on the results of the TVPFAVAR model, it was assessed that the impact shock of the selected variables in the long-term period is stronger than the short-term period, which indicates that the elasticity of financial prosperity is greater than the changes in systematic risk variables compared to the short-term elasticity. Based on the results of economic growth and the KOF index, the positive effect and uncertainty variables of inflation, exchange rate, and sanctions hurt financial wealth in the general trend.
